Research Group of Prof. Dr. h.c. mult. Hasso Plattner

Please Note: Dear visitors, our research group will retire on July ‘23 and there will be no further updates on this page. If you are still interested in our topics or people, we have added links to our pages that will forward you to more up-to-date information. Should you have any questions, please feel free to reach out to Michael Perscheid.

Our research focuses on the technical aspects of business software with the vision to find the fastest way to get insights out of enterprise data. This includes studying the efficient principles of hybrid transactional and analytical processing on modern in-memory hardware and cloud infrastructures, the scalable development and integration of different software components into a joint business processes platform, and the analysis of consolidated business objects to support data-driven decisions and to create new business value. We apply our findings to real-world scenarios and showcase future enterprise applications by developing and evaluating functional prototypes closely together with our industry partners.
